Only in my wildest dreams...

I've mentioned before I have very detailed and varied dreams. Last night, I dreamt about a whole new series of True Blood. Think I'll have to store that for another day. Back to the point...

So a while back I had a dream and I told The Romaniacs about it seen as they were featured. I was at the Festival of Romance Gala Dinner. I was there because I'd been shortlisted for the New Talent Award and all the other Romaniacs had been shortlisted as well. In joint third place were Vanessa and Celia and in second... well, I don't know because I woke up at the crucial point. I think Laura was going to win, but we'll never know because it was just a dream. Like I said, I told them about this dream because it was lovely and I wanted them to know about it. And then...

STOP PRESS!!!

On Friday the shortlist came out and after being congratulated on twitter, I was shocked and amazed to find my name on the list! And not only that, I soon discovered that all my fellow Romaniacs who had entered were there as well!! This was my reaction:

This is what Romaniac happiness looks like. Scary, isn't it? The other Romaniacs were also in varying states of elation. Just imagine what we'll be like if any of us get placed. And you never know. Because it turns out your wildess dreams can come true!

About Me

Ever since I can remember I have written as a hobby. This blog is about me trying to turn writing into something more than a hobby.
Born in Margate, Kent in 1981 I left home to train as a physiotherapist in London. After qualifying in 2002 I moved to Southampton and worked for the next 6 years in the NHS. Shortly after qualifying I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis following several years with an eye condition. Gradually with a combination of my illness and the side effects of many medications I opted to leave the NHS to safeguard my future health. I now work part-time in a Shopmobility and have been concentrating on improving my health. Now my health is improving I am spending more time concentrating on my writing. This blog will outline the projects I am getting on with, how I get on, any competitions I plan to enter them into and anything else that may be of interest.
